Blood Hunt brings Black Panther, Blood Hunters, Psylocke, Doctor Strange, Miles Morales Spider-Man and Werewolf-By-Night to the hunt today. Some are leading into Blood Hunt #5, two are playing catch up and leading into Blood Hunt #4, and others are on their own journey…
Bloodline jumps from the Dracula book to help out Miles Morales Spider-Man. And brings Dracula along with her.
As well as lining up the duty that Bloodline will have to kill her own father Blade…
… though not everyone knows that Blade has been possessed by ancient vampire Varnae. They know that in Black Panther: Blood Hunt #3.
Where an also-posessed Black Panther managed to have the wherewithal to tie into The City as seen in recent Avengers…
Which helps sent up the end of Blood Hunt #4. Doctor Strange goes further with ghost dog Bats empowered with godhood taking on a Doctor Strange vampire possessed by Victor Strange…
And in sorting him out, restoring Doctor Strange's body, whichever version of Blood Hunt you read, just in time for Blood Hunt #5.
While Bloodline and Miles Morales also turn up, looking to rescue Doctor Strange's body for another feasting.
While the one-shots see Werewolf By Night dealing with vampire police welcoming the night..
Psylocke dealing with all of Japan's monsters currently empowered…
… like this one.
Latverian embassies have their own battles with vampires, inside and out, in Blood Hunters.
Werewolf-By-Night is bringing back the oldest of foes…
This is the fiftieth anniversary of his first appearance – and death, from Ghost Rider #2 and #3 from 1973 by Gary Friedrich and Jim Mooney.
I have to say, it looks like this demon from hell may have a point regarding how he was treated by Ghost Rider.
Though Blood Hunters #3 challenges that with a not-quite-as-old-but-more-insane blast from the past.
Hellcow, vampire bovine created by Steve Gerber and Frank Brunner for Giant-Size Man-Thing #5 in 1975.
Psylocke names her foe as well, Kuchsake-onna who is definitely a thing, though new to Marvel.
Dazzler may be infected but is also a being of light.
So that won't last long.
While Doctor Doom mixes magic and science in effective fashion, before he runs off to deal with Strange Academy and pop up in Blood Hunt #4…
While Blood Hunters gives us a new character find for 2024.
And Werewolf By Night also catches up with the events of Blood Hunt #4…
And while Hallows Eve joins the Blood Hunters… disguised as a vampire, as is her ability.
The Werewolf By Night seems to have found the dawn already? Or is it just a colouring choice?
